[GlobalMerge] Allow merging globals with explicit section markings.
At least on ELF, it's impossible to tell from the object file whether two globals with the same section marking were merged: the merged global uses "private" linkage to hide its symbol, and the aliases look like regular symbols. I can't think of any other reason to disallow it. (Of course, we can only merge globals in the same section.) The weird alignment handling matches AsmPrinter; our alignment handling for global variables should probably be refactored. Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D49822 llvm-svn: 338791
